South African Youth Day

Hey Y'all

I attended the South African Youth day which remembers and celebrates the Soweto Uprising that took place on June 16th 1976. On this day students in Soweto marched against the apartheid government that sought to impose Afrikaans as a medium of instruction for all subjects.

The day began at  8am for me and my friends and family. We began our journey to the South African Embassy which is in Canberra. The car journey felt like it took ten years, but finally when we reached our destination the excitement kicked in!

The event was really casual, the High Commissioner spoke followed by some beautiful singing by Kymie be sure to check out her sound cloud page at Official Kymie. Then came one of the most empowering poems I've ever heard recited by Tahi. You can check out a snippet of this poem and a vlog of the event on my YouTube channel at Massy's World.

COATED

COATED by massy-moo featuring a zara coat





Hey Y'all 

Its winter and I'm so excited! I absolutely love winter and I have been hunting for the perfect winter coat and have found my dream team of coats. I can't help but notice that people associate winter with dull coloured clothing and may I just say that winter for me is when fashion gets interesting, you are able to do some much more with your outfit, don't you think ? I consider these coats to be on my 'If your lucky I might buy you' list.

 No.1 Is from Topshop and to be honest I'm not the biggest fan of Topshop, I just find to be so overwhelming going in there plus its always packed! But I found this bright treasure when driving past Topshop, and I knew from then on that coat needed to get in my life! The colour is perfect and I love that they have just the one black button on there. 

No.2  I love the cut and the illusion being made by the two contrasting colours, this coat is almost just an essential item in any females wardrobe as you can throw it over anything and be guaranteed that it'll not only tie your outfit together but add to it too.

No.3 Is bold but Im not 100% loving it but then when I say that I feel like its such a great coat that I can't help but want it, also adds colour to an other wise dull day or outfit. 

No.4  I love me some check! With the tartan trend coming in I thought it only appropriate to have a coat that acknowledges the trend I liked but never jumped on. I love the simplicity but also, it screams warm to me, not sure why I like it cause it's not usually something I'd picture myself in but my eyes are liking what they see.

No.5 Don't have much to say about this one but that its just a coat that compliments all outfits and also very simple which is good cause you don't what wear an outfit that says look at me and then a coat the yells look at me ahaha.

No.6 Lucky last one thing I love about this coat is its length. it has a daggy look to it gives off a 'I don't really care what you think' vibe and I just love how simple it is but still says look 'I look good'.

I think that I love simplicity and using simple items to make an extraordinary outfit that looks effortless. I have been loving Instagram at the moment because I have been loving the bloggers that have been rocking coats #feelinginspiredwhenidoubletap.
